Nowadays, the need to technology evaluation is increasing with development of technology in different areas and also the necessity of using modern technologies. In a general sense, technology evaluation is referred to a process during which the effects from introduction, development, change and modification for a technology are investigated in a firm by a systematic method. The weaknesses and strengths in the intended technology is specified by investigating the level of technological capabilities, and the required context for decision making is created with regard to the development of technological capabilities.
This paper aims to investigate and analyze the levels of technological capabilities in SAIPA group. This research evaluates the levels of technological capability in 8 factors by a developed model and specifies the situation of the company and presents the existing gap for codifying the projects of technological modification. This is a descriptive-survey research and the data are gathered using AHP questionnaire. Hierarchy analysis is used to rank the effective factors on the capabilities. The results show that the mean technological capability of SAIPA group in the 8 factors is equal to 54.12. Also, the factor of competition state in industry obtained the highest rank among the factors in the ranking of the effective factors on technological capabilities.
